Ye Qiyan walked over to the pierced executive chair and casually tossed aside the cyborg leaking human brain fluid.
Directly in front of it sat a very sturdy-looking computer that had not yet finished shutting down.
"A computer? What's the password?"
"Hmm?"
As he wondered, Lisette, who had just caught up from below, walked up to the computer.

Though she said nothing, there was an inexplicable cheerfulness about her, as if she were telling Ye Qiyan just how useful she was.
"That works too? Good job, Lisette. I'll get you an extra drumstick later."
The mechanical maid glanced at Red Tears following beside them, and her smile grew a little wider.
He tapped away at a real keyboard for the first time in ages.
